Legions of dedicated Morgan Wallen fans gathered at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium Thursday night (May 2) for the first of three shows. The Tennessee native was joined by Bailey Zimmerman, Nate Smith and Lauren Watkins for the Music City dates of his “One Night At A Time 2024 Tour.”
To kick off the night’s music, Watkins gave a charming set that included her cheeky “Anybody But You” and new song “Mama, I Made It.” Her charisma and excitement resonated with the early arrivals at the stadium who danced along during her 25 minutes.
When Smith took the stage, he brought the passion and vocal chops that felt ready for a stadium-sized crowd. The singer gave his all on tunes “Bulletproof,” “Wreckage,” “Sleeve” and his first chart-topper “Whiskey On You.” After a cover of Foo Fighters’ “My Hero,” Smith closed with his record-breaking, 10-week No. 1 hit “World On Fire.”
Next it was time for Zimmerman to take the stage. When the 24-year old appeared, the crowd was ready for his signature energizer bunny stage presence. He opened his set with “Religiously,” and immediately started taking advantage of the large stage’s full real estate.
Fans were excited to hear “Warzone,” “Chase Her,” “Fix’n To Break,” “Holy Smokes” and his first-ever No. 1 “Fall In Love” before rain interrupted his set, sending some fans into the covered terminals of the stadium. That didn’t bring Zimmerman down though. He continued his rampage of streaming monsters including “You Don’t Want That Smoke,” “Where It Ends” and “Rock and A Hard Place.”
